Meet a female photographer who has spent years posing for
nude portraits in and around New York City, USA, to encourage other
people to embrace their ‘primary state of being’.
Erica Simone, 29, has been taking naked photographs of herself for the past five years. She now hopes to raise $10,000 in order to turn series of striking images into a book. The book will show a variety of Ms Simone’s best images, all of which capture the photographer in a variety of day-to-day locations.
Speaking about her photographic project the young woman said: “What would the world feel like naked? What if we didn’t have clothing to come in between us? Or if we couldn’t show off our social status? What if all we had were our bodies to express our personalities?
These questions raised many various issues and these issues raised many various questions. How have we evolved so far away from our utmost primary state of being that it is actually against the law to be nude in public? Naked is who we are and who we come into the world as.

This is a campaign about being comfortable with who you are as a person, with your body, your mind and your role in society. It’s about being free from the confinements of societal’s expectations and the media’s projections.”
